END OF AMBITIOUS ideas.

He was a little fellow not over
twelve years old, and he was sitting
behind a box over at the Omaha
depot the other morning, softly cry
ing, and looking very dirty and
fOrlOrn.
whats the matter?" we asked.
"Hain't nothin' the matter" he
said, defantly, sitting up straight,
hastily brushing away his tears and
pushing back his jacket little, SO
as to diplay the handle of an old
revolver in his pocket. Then he
looked off across the river at the
buildings and lost his bravery. and
buried his head again and sobbed
through his tears:
ooh, mister, I've been a-runnin'
away an / want o go home"
"What made you run away?"

it hain't, no it hain't," and he
rested his face in his hands and

"No."
II wouldn't shoot 'em if there
was. Dick shot EN-. but l dOn't

once more his tears flowed.
"Where did you live?"

the thought of his mother was toe
much for him.
Il don't want to hunt Indians
or bears or nothin, nor rescue nc
maidens, an I'm tired of that old
thing!" and he pulled a rusty re-
volver out of his pocket that hadn't
been fired for ten years and threw
it across the track. Please, mis-
ter, get me something to eat, an
I'll work all day for you" and he
looked up pitifully and Strengthened
his little cap on his curly head.
We took him along and he ate
three or four meals in one, but

In the year 1867 two persons left
Dalkeith for Galashiels, and, not
having the requisite funds to get
married by a minister. they each
took handful Of meal and knelt
down, facing each other, after plac-
ing a basin between them. Both
then placed their hands full of meal
in the basin and mixed it, in token
that they "would not sever till
death did them part" After swear
ing to this effect on a Bible they
both rose up and declared them
selves man and wife. They after
ward returned to Dalkeith, where
they resided as man and wife, the
marriage being considered as per-
fectly legal.-All the Year Round.

DueiS were as common in the west in those

left handed His Indian name was Ni-Wot.
A mountain stream and little postofiice near
Denver bear the name Ni-Wot, in honor of
the old warrior 1t was early in the sixties,
when Jim Baker was living on Clear creek,
that he had excited the animosity and hatred
of Left Hand On one occasion Left Hand
and band of his tribe caInped near Jim
Bakers cabin. Believing that they were bent
on mischief ard that his old enemy intended
to make war on him, Baker, with rifle in
hand, went alone to Left Hands camp. The
Indians were amazed to see Baker enter their
camp alone, and much more SO when they
saw him walk up to Left Hand and say:
rs Left Hand, the great chief and warrior
of the Arapahoes, here FOR peace or war;
The chief, startled by the nerve and also
the abrupt questions OF the speaker, hesi-
tated a moment
